Overview

Magnetic Small-Angle Neutron Scattering provides the first extensive treatment of magnetic small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). The theoretical background required to compute magnetic SANS cross sections and correlation functions related to long-wavelength magnetization structures is laid out. The concepts are scrutinized based on the discussion of experimental neutron data. Regarding prior background knowledge, some familiarity with the basic magnetic interactions and phenomena as well as scattering theory is desired.

Reviews

A go-to manual for anyone doing a magnetic SANS experiment, well-structured and with a nice balance of the different relevant topics. * Diego Alba Venero, ISIS Neutron and Muon Source, Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, UK * A timely topic - the method of magnetic small angle scattering has now reached maturity and applications of the technique are numerous, such as the development of novel permanent magnets urgently needed e.g. for electric mobility. * Thomas Brueckel, Juelich Centre for Neutron Science JCNS and Peter Gruenberg Institute PGI, Germany *
